| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (method: meme discussion) |
Teacher displays a meme showing a person crying over a finished book with the caption "The book hangover is real." Teacher: "Good morning! Look at this picture. Why do you think people post memes like this? What is this person feeling? Is this feeling familiar to any of you? Let's discuss why this topic – 'My favourite book' – is relevant to us today." The teacher facilitates a brief discussion, linking the meme to the emotional impact of reading. |
Students observe the meme. They think and share their ideas. Possible responses: "They loved the book and are sad it's over," "They miss the characters," "It's about how a good book can affect your emotions." Students connect the meme to their own experiences with books. | Descriptors: The student participates in the discussion, attempts to interpret the meme's message, and makes a personal connection to the topic of reading. (no points) |
Projector/Screen, Meme image (prepared slide), AI Tool: An image generated by DALL-E or a similar AI to create a custom "book hangover" meme tailored to teenage interests. |
